okay. after this huge delay, i finally decided to look into this again. here's what i found out:
-using the installer for the older version and prompting to uninstall the old version, doesn't work. it doesn't seem to be able to remove the version at all.
-furthermore, when uninstalling the driver from the add/delete programs function, it says that the program has already been uninstalled, and will only remove it from the list. yet, all the files are still there in the folder.
-uninstalling with BASSMIDI's uninstaller doesn't work, as it cannot locate the uninstaller's executable. it doesn't appear to exist in BASSMIDI's folder.
-i cannot install the 3.1 version of BASSMIDI because of the prompted uninstall doesn't work. however, it magically DOES work when i've just removed the software from the add/delete list. however, it has trouble with and cannot overwrite the bassmidi .dll file that lies in the folder. even trying to delete the file myself from the folder doesn't work, as it denies me access to do that.
that's all i've found out about why i can't get BASSMIDI to work.
